Bella's Crafts Premier Parfait Chunky Chenille Yarn 3-Pack Cardinal — Super Bulky #6, 120 m Soft Polyester

Bella's Crafts Premier Parfait Chunky Chenille Yarn 3-pack is a super-bulky, ultra-soft polyester bundle perfect for fast-knit or crochet projects in a rich Cardinal shade.

If you want a plush, easy-care yarn that builds projects quickly and feels luxurious to the touch, this 3.5 oz skein bundle brings the classic Parfait chenille into a #6 super-bulky gauge. Each skein gives you roughly 131 yards (120 m) of 100% polyester chenille, making it ideal for home accessories, cosy throws, and quick wearable pieces. The yarn is machine-washable with care instructions to avoid bleaching, tumble drying, or ironing.

How does this yarn make projects faster and easier?

The super-bulky #6 weight means larger stitches and quicker row progression, so blankets, scarves, and cushions grow rapidly. Its plush chenille profile hides minor tension variations, helping beginner and experienced makers achieve polished-looking results faster.

• Weight: #6 Super Bulky for fast stitch coverage
• Length: 131 yards (120 m) per 3.5 oz / 100 g skein
• Recommended needles/hook: US 11 (8 mm) needles, US L-11 (8 mm) crochet hook
• Typical gauge: knitting 10 sts x 14 rows = 4"; crochet 9 sc x 9 rows = 4"

What projects work best with this chenille yarn?

This chenille excels in items that benefit from volume and softness: throws, chunky scarves, plush toys, cushions, and accent trims. Because it’s polyester, it keeps a soft, velvety hand that looks and feels luxurious on finished pieces.

• Home decor: blankets, pillow covers, poufs
• Wearables: quick cowls, ear warmers, oversized hats
• Accessories: pom-poms, trims, plush amigurumi
• Fast gifts: one-skein or two-skein projects for quick gifting

How do I care for finished items made with this yarn?

Finished pieces require gentle handling to maintain the chenille’s soft pile. Machine wash warm on a gentle cycle, but avoid bleaching, tumble drying, or ironing to preserve colour and texture. Lay flat to dry and reshape as needed while damp.

• Washing: machine wash warm, gentle cycle
• Bleach: do not bleach
• Drying: do not tumble dry; lay flat to dry
• Ironing: do not iron to protect the pile

Will this yarn work for beginners learning knit or crochet?

Yes—its thick profile and forgiving texture make it beginner-friendly. Stitches are easy to see and the bulky gauge reduces project complexity and time commitment. That said, chenille can be slightly slippery, so a consistent tension and slightly looser grip help avoid splitting the pile.

• Visibility: large stitches are easier to identify
• Speed: bulky gauge shortens project time
• Technique tip: keep a relaxed tension to prevent pile catching
• Suitable tools: US 11 (8 mm) needles and L-11 hook recommended
